Back then, when he learned that Lu Yushan was carrying his child, he was overjoyed.
He was on his way to propose to the Lu family with betrothal gifts when he was informed that she was already engaged to Qin Si Ye.
As a man, how could he endure such humiliation?
The miscarriage of the child was an accident, and he felt guilty for a long time.
"But isn't everything I've done for you? If I married Qin Si Ye with the child, wouldn't all of the Qin family's assets eventually be yours? That would be a hundred times better than your own efforts behind the scenes," Lu Yushan said with wide eyes.
Su Cheng Yu sneered. Her words sounded so false.
Qin Si Ye was a germaphobe and did not associate with women. Five years ago, on that night, he had arranged for someone to drug Qin Si Ye, intending to kill him.
He hadn't expected a woman to accidentally stumble into his room and save him.
Little did he know that Lu Yushan had found an opportunity and insisted that the woman that night was her.
Did anyone know better than him whether it was her or not? She had stayed with him the entire night.
"Yushan, don't try to put it so nicely. I think you've taken a liking to Qin Si Ye. Otherwise, with the child gone, why are you still clinging to him like this?"
Lu Yushan took a step closer to him and said in a low voice, "Because I'm still engaged to him, I still have a chance, and I can still help you."
Help him? What a noble way of putting it. Did he need to offer his own woman to bring down a man?
However, from the day she got engaged to Qin Si Ye, from the moment the child was lost, he had seen through this woman's true colors.
Vanity was her nature.
Since she was willing to fly into the flame, let her continue.
"Fine. Then you can just wait for Qin Si Ye to marry you." Su Cheng Yu turned to leave after speaking.
"Wait." Lu Yushan suddenly grabbed his arm. "Cheng Yu, I need your help."
"What can I help you with?" Su Cheng Yu stopped in his tracks.
"Qin Si Ye is wavering now, and he wants to call off the engagement. You know he doesn't like me at all, but if I manage to marry him, I can still get half of the Qin family's assets even if we divorce. Then you'll have your share," Lu Yushan said, her eyes darting around.
The mention of assets immediately piqued Su Cheng Yu's interest. It was something he had long coveted.
"How can I trust you?"
"I can sign an agreement with you," Lu Yushan replied with an earnest expression.
Over the years, Su Cheng Yu had been indifferent to her, and she had been fighting alone. It was time for her to get a helper.
That day, while playing chess at the Qin family's house, he had secretly advised her on how to deal with Shen Xi, giving her a glimmer of hope.
"Okay," Su Cheng Yu agreed.
As long as he could make Qin Si Ye unhappy and get his assets, he was willing to do it.
As Qin Si Ye walked out of the private room, Zhao Ze behind him said, "President, isn't that Miss Lu?"
His steps faltered slightly. Qin Si Ye looked up and saw Lu Yushan walking unsteadily from the safety stairs.
Immediately after, Su Cheng Yu also emerged from there and walked in another direction.
Qin Si Ye frowned and said to Zhao Ze behind him, "Investigate their relationship."
"Yes," Zhao Ze replied.
The two walked out of the bar. Qin Si Ye got into the car and rubbed his temples. "Book me a flight to Country B for tomorrow."
Zhao Ze was shocked. What was the President planning to do? He remembered that there was no such item in his itinerary for the next few days.
"President, there's an important meeting tomorrow that requires your personal attendance."
Qin Si Ye slowly raised his head. "Then book a flight for the day after tomorrow."
Building 3, Huabanli Villa, the restaurant was filled with laughter.
"Uncle Jian, are you staying with us for a long time this time?" Chenchen asked the handsome man in front of him happily.
Jian Fan's lips curved slightly, and he glanced at Shen Xi. "As long as your mommy doesn't kick me out, I'll stay with you all."
